According to Peprah the president
distributed outboard motors to some fisher folk in the area in order to facilitate their work.
The Ghana Integrity Initiative (GII), had accused the President of abusing incumbency and indulging in electoral corruption, for
distributing the outboard motors among other items.
Presidential Advisor on corruption, Daniel Batidam, has defended President John Mahama's decision to
distribute outboard motors to fisher folks during his campaign tour of the Western Region in August.
